GS14 1181: Graduate Neuroanatomy
Fall/annually/1-credit hour course. The Graduate Neuroanatomy course will provide a broad overview of the structure and function of the central nervous system. The general architecture of the nervous system and its functional systems are presented in a series of online exercises. The exercises allow the students to examine brain anatomy at a detailed view of the regional anatomy of the brain and spinal cord. MRIs of brain anatomy, as commonly presented in the scientific literature, will be presented using a computerized learning system. Click here for web page for Graduate Neuroanatomy Course

For Fall 2014 - Spring 2015, this course will be offered on Wednesday mornings from 9 am to 11:30 am in UT MSB B.625
The first class will be Monday September 10 and the last class will be Monday December 10th. There will be no class on November 19th (Society for Neuroscience annual meeting) or November 26th (Thanksgiving Holiday). In general, the course follows the schedule of the UT GSBS.

This course is intended for graduate students, post-doctoral fellows and faculty who are interested in using fMRI for their research. A small number of undergraduates may also enroll in the course solely at the discretion of the instructor (only undergraduates who are currently working in a laboratory that uses functional MRI study will be considered). The course is primarily offered through the University of Texas Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences GSBS 140053 (http://www.uthouston.edu/gsbs/current-students/academics/course-listing/courses/neuroscience/gs140053-introduction-to-functional-magnetic-resonance-imaging-.htm). The course is also cross-listed at Rice University in the Psychology and Bioengineering departments (as Psych 579 and BioE 571) and in the Baylor College of Medicine Graduate School of Biological Sciences (as GS-NE-439) (http://neuro.bcm.edu/?sct=neuro_think&gp=cdescript). If you are a student at UT, Rice or Baylor contact your registrar for enrollment information.
If you are a student at University of Houston, it is probably easiest to enroll in the course via cross-registration through Rice University. (UT requires vaccination records for cross-registration which is annoying). However, if you would like to enroll through UT, please visit this web page for information about enrolling in the course:
